*BLUE VELVET (Loomis) M. 40". The best-selling dork blue iris of 
cdl time. Unequalled in its velvety texture, it is most appropriately

flower on the MUST HAVE list. 25c

wine tones is carried over the lustrous golden tan, gracefully 
arching S. This one is the brightest of all iris in the red tones, 
bearing F. the nearest to true red now known for they show 
no undertone of violet or purple. Their bright coloring mokes 
this flower a flame in the garden. A. M. in U. S. and given
